Mountain Sports

United States

Welcome to Mountain Sports! We are a full-line certified Orvis Dealer. We here at Mountain Sports are fortunate to have two of the Southeast's finest trout fisheries at our doorstep. The South Holston and Watauga rivers, each about 15 miles long, make up the headwaters of the entire TVA chain of rivers, impoundments and lakes down to Guntersville, AL. As headwaters, both lakes claim the cleanest water TVA has to offer. In addition, hydroelectric power generating schedules are friendlier, aquatic insect life is more prolific and, owing to their relatively small size, wadeablity is easier than anywhere along the chain. Both dams are bottom release discharging cold, nutrient rich, highly oxygenated water downstream. Mountain Sports Ltd. is pleased to announce that we now offer fly fishing guide services in the Tri-Cities region. The guide service is provided by Patrick Fulkrod, an Orvis-endorsed fly fishing guide and manager of the fly fishing department here at MSL. Learn how to fly fish (or just improve your technique) in our popular Fly Fishing Schools. You'll be instructed by our resident fly fishing expert, Patrick Fulkrod, manager of our fly fishing department and Orvis-Endorsed Fly Fishing Guide. Here at Mountain Sports we are also very fortunate to have some of the areas finest mountain stream fisheries. All streams are gradient freestone streams, which can offer a pleasant days' hike along with a remarkable day of fishing. These waters include Whitetop Laurel, Tennessee Laurel, and Beaver Dam.
